What others can't tell you about the laws of marketing?

“GOOD MARKETING makes the Company look smart,

GREAT MARKETING makes the Company feel smart”


At a fundamental level, Marketing is the process of understanding your customers, and building and maintaining relationships.


WEALTH = MARKETING + GOOD STRATEGIES


Fundamentals of Marketing:

Marketing is about sending the right message, to the right person at the right time.

The technology may change but the basics of marketing do not change.

The selling techniques that we use today still rely on the infamous four P’s of marketing: Product, Price, Place, and Promotion.

Let’s take a brief look at each of the 4 P’s that power every form of marketing technique:

1. Product (Commodity):

A marketer’s first task is to understand what the product has to offer or its Unique Selling Proposition (USP).


What makes a product valuable to a consumer?

While making any product, you should first do Marketing and do the market research about what the customer wants and then make your product. Then that Product will be more refined.

Generally, people do the opposite of this process and they will make a product first and then do marketing and market study that is the reason why many products fail.

2. Price (Cost):

Pricing is a simple concept to understand but has deep psychology that businesses need to embrace. Pricing is what the customer is willing to pay for the Product or Service that your business offers.

3. Place (Channel):

Place refers to where the customer can access your product or service. The right Placement of a product matters a lot for the success of the product.

4. Promotion (Communication):

Promotion means any activity or action taken to sell or promote the product. Promotion plays an important role in getting more business or sales.

Businesses need to integrate their marketing strategies and include all those basic elements to grow their Business.


“Business has only two functions — marketing and innovation.” — Milan Kundera

There are 2 types of Marketing, Traditional Marketing, and Digital Marketing. Digital marketing vs. Traditional marketing


Traditional Marketing:

First, we will see how Traditional Marketing works. In some businesses still, traditional marketing is used. Some businesses have the type of services/products that should go with traditional marketing.

Businesses should have a better idea about which type of marketing they should use. While traditional marketing uses traditional media like magazines, newspapers, etc.

Traditional marketing still plays an important role in people’s lives along with the ever-growing need to step out to the Digital world. Traditional marketing may have evolved over the past few decades, but the fundamental aspects remain the same.


Digital Marketing:


In the age of social media, Marketing’s definition has changed and people are going more digital. Not only is digital marketing sometimes more cost-effective than traditional, but also it is a more effective way to connect with the target audience globally. Digital marketing is one of the most essential aspects for businesses these days.

It is all dependent on what kind of business you are in, and what your goals are. According to that, we can choose the marketing method. Your objective may be to display the website on the first page of search engines, Lead Generation, Branding, and many more……


After seeing Traditional Marketing and Digital Marketing, in our mind, we have a question ‘Which marketing should we choose for our business?’

The debate between traditional and digital marketing is long-lasting.

It ultimately comes down to which one fits the needs of your company. When trying to choose between traditional and digital marketing, why not look at both if it is suitable for your business?

If your brand is new and you have to make your brand then you have to go with both Marketing methods.
